Artichoke Flowers

We went for another walk today, on a beautiful sunny day, and we saw some blooming artichoke plants. I don't think I had ever seen that before, probably because when I grew them I always picked the chokes to eat before they ever had flowers.

That is pretty cool. I had never seen them bloom either.

Thanks. I was told they are related to thistles.

Don't get too close and look into them.
